63. Reconnaissance

Mrs. Kennedy is deep in thought while sitting in the sitting room crocheting. The warm sun rays caress her through the window and with her crocheting and knitting it helps to alleviate the biting tension that nowadays constantly gnaws at her stomach. She dearly misses the chitchats with her clients in town. She wonders what has happened to them. Maybe she will never see them again! She is compelled to hole up here with Robert, her recluse brother and his friend, Hunter, on the smallholding.
